that sucks that you two won't be able to make it. It's probably going to take some time to get it done. I'll probably be there for a few hours if you can make it at a later time, i'll probably still be there till 3PM or so.

So...it seems that this Saturday is going to be the best time to do this. PM me ASAP if you want to do this. $140 for 5 windows at Best Image in San Mateo.

Best Guys in Concord does great work. Within the $200 range. There is this guy that has a small shop on the corner off Monument in Concord, right before the McDonalds. Quoted me for my xd, all windows tinted... $150. Still haven't gone yet though.

give Best Image a call. They can give you a price and you can negitiate the price too.

Yeah, I did my tints there too. Best Image isn't quality to tell you the truth. I still have these weird glue markings on my driverside window and a little crappy job on the passenger corner window near the side mirror. All-in-all I'd give them 3 out of 5 job. Supposedly they are lifetime warranty as well. We'll see about that once my tints are messin up. Anyway, I got 5% in the back and 35 in front. For those who don't have good eyes at night? Please be forewarned, 5% is much too dark in the tC and backing up is a _____! I need better reverse lighting!!

Jeff, let me know the results and pix up soon buddy.

Dude....if you have the recipt or any proof that they did it. Just go back and show them. They told me, Chewie, and my brother-in-law that it's a lifetime warranty on the tint and the install job. If anything is messed up they will fix it. As for 5% being too dark, i disagree. But whatever. If your not happy go back and make them fix it. I'm very happy with the job they did.
